Factors

There are serval external and internal environmental factors that helps the organization achieve optimal functions. The external factors are economic factors, sociological factors, political factors, and technological factors. The internal factors are beliefs, mission,vision, culture, and goals. Both factors are needed to help the organization. The four external environmental factors vital to organizations are economic, which deals with the different funding and other sources needed for the community. Sociological factor deals with understanding the issues of the community demographics in the targeted population. Political and professional factors deals with laws and regulation programs and businesses have to operate under within the environment. Finally, technology factor helps to keep up-to-date with software and hardware that will allow the organization to be able to better utilize and get information to and from the community as well as others. The six internal environmental factors that helps organizations are beliefs, which have to do with the overall value of the business. Mission, which is the overall goal of the organization, and allow others to know where the company is trying to go. Vision, is the plans that managers for-see that they can do to reach the company mission. Culture, it have to do with the people that make up the organization and the ability to add personal insight to the company. Lastly, goals is what everyone works to reach. This will also work toward the mission. To me the most important factors would be sociological factor and goals. These are important because they deal with a targeted population, and they are trying to reach a

...Systematically analyse the impacts of external factors on organisational decision making
Decision making is a broad term that applies to the process of making a choice between options as to course of action (Smith et al., 2005). There are many factors that are involved in decision making of any organisation especially in health and social care organisation. Following are the external factors that are affecting the decision making of health and social care organisation. (Blog NHS Website, 2005).
1. Legislation:
There are many set of rules and regulations defined by the government and health and social care sector is bound to obey these rules and regulations Such as “The Mental Capacity Act 2005”, The Access to Medical Reports Act 1988, Blood Safety and Quality Legislation, The Census (Confidentiality) Act 1991, The Children Act 2004, The Civil Contingencies Act 2004, The Civil Evidence Act 1995, Commission Directive 2003/63/EC (brought into UK law by inclusion in the Medicines for Human Use (Fees and Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2003), The Computer Misuse Act 1990, The Congenital Disabilities (Civil Liability) Act 1976, The Consumer Protection Act (CPA) 1987, The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH), Regulations 2002, The Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1990, The Crime and Disorder Act 1998, The Criminal Appeal Act 1995, The Data Protection Act (DPA) 1998, The Data Protection (Processing of Sensitive Personal Data) Order 2000, The Disclosure......

“I heard you got another A in one of your summer classes. Good job.”
“Thanks. Everything is finally looking up. Mom said I’ve earned another shot up at University Park. Dad is still being stubborn, but he’ll come around eventually. I haven’t been this happy since high school.”
“Seems like it. You better make the most of it.”
“I will. I have to.”
“If you don’t mind me asking…where were you the past year?”
“Lost.”
“What do you mean?”
“I wish I knew.”
“You know—I went to Penn State too—was there for 8 years and 3 degrees. I knew many of the most talented and brilliant people there. Professors, students, and—“
“You were one of them.”
“—and you are too. You’re just as talented as any of them, including me.”
“I know Mark, I agree with you.”
“Then…can I ask you something?”
“Is that rhetorical?”
“How badly do you want to succeed?”
“As badly as you did…as badly as you still do.”
“Then why were you struggling so much?
“Because I just wasn’t…me.”

“So…help me understand what you’re talking about?”
“You already know everything that’s happened with me...it’s all been in our conversations; little bits here—small pieces there. You’re smart enough to put it all together—and I know you already have. I’m done thinking about what’s happened in the past. I’ve already moved on.”

...enrolment rate in higher education in South Africa while graduation rate is low clearly tells ushigher education institutions should consider factors which lead to students failure or success. This is supported by
Those universities should take a closer look at all the factors that determine whether or not students are successful.
Samaniego-Ssanchez et al (2011) in their findings which stated that one of the main factors determining academic success could be social context. As much as the higher education institution is helping providing e education for students, produce competent graduate and potential future leaders, it is not always possible for most of the students to meet their goals. This happens sometimes as a result of social factors that interfere with academic success of students.
According to Umar, Sahib, Aituisi, Yakubu and Bada (2010), social factors such as environment (romantic relationships, organisations and sports activity) have been found to have effects on students’ academic performance in terms of the time demanded and the psychological state they may cause. These social factors play a crucial role in affecting the performance of students at high education institution. Students fail to excel in their studies and achieve good academic performance as a consequence of the impact that social factor have on respective students.
A study conducted by Tinto (1987) reported that about 57% of students at a higher education......

...Factor Analysis in SPSS
To conduct a Factor Analysis, start from the “Analyze” menu. This procedure is intended to
reduce the complexity in a set of data, so we choose “Data Reduction” from the menu. And the
choice in this category is “Factor,” for factor analysis.
This dataset gives children’s scores on subtests of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children
(WISC-III). The Wechsler scales are scored to give you a “verbal” and a “performance” IQ.
The question is whether we can reproduce the verbal vs. nonverbal distinction, with the
appropriate subtests grouping into each category, using factor analysis.
This dialog box will appear:
Factor analysis has no IVs and DVs, so everything you want to get factors for just goes into the
list labeled “variables.” In this case, it’s all the variables. In some datasets, there is also a
dummy “subject number” variable included. Be sure that you don’t include subject number as
one of the variables for your factor analysis!
To do a factor analysis, we need to select an “extraction method” and a “rotation method.” Hit
the “Extraction” button to specify your extraction method.
In this dialog box, you can make a number of selections. First, I want you to un-check the box
labeled “Unrotated factor solution.” This is a default setting for your printout, but it just gives
you information that you don’t need, and that may distract you from the real answers. So,
always go into the Extraction sub-dialog and un-check......

...male rape; male rape will be referred to as a sexual
violation of a man by another man through forced and non-consensual penetrative
sexual intercourse.
Research Questions
There is a main research question, which the dissertation is based on: why are male
rape victims given less attention by the police than their female counterparts? There
are also sub-questions to supplement the main research question: 1) Why are police
officers disregarding male rape victims? 2) Why are male rape victims reluctant to
report to the police?
The Rationale for Conducting the Dissertation
The rationale for researching the police is because they are the first port of call for
male rape victims when rape is reported, and they have a core comprehension of the
factors that facilitate to the under-reporting of male rape and the impact of rape on
men’s lives. The police also give information regarding male rape victims’ needs and
the availability of provisions in fulfilling those needs. Therefore, the police are a good
data source.
The Aims of the Dissertation


To unveil the phenomenon and practice of male rape in Britain;
To closely examine the male rape law, as it affects how the police respond to
male rape;
 To pick out and research the aspects that determine the underreporting/recording of male rape;
 To identify and scrutinise male rape myths within the police subculture;
 To comprehensively examine and study the police responses to male rape.

Internal and External Factors in Big Business
There are many factors that can influence the four functions of management. Different factors can determine how you plan, organize, lead and control a company. In this paper, I will discuss how different factors such as diversity and innovation can influence a vast company like Google. Some factors are internal, like technology, and some are external, like globalization, and some can be both, like diversity. All in all Google is showing future companies how management is supposed to be done by embracing all of the different factors I will discuss below.
Influencing GOOGLE
In late 1998, Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded a company named Google. This American company since then has become a multinational technology company with a vast amount of products and services. They specialize in web related products and services such as online advertising, document storage, free email accounts, computing software and one of the best search engines known to man. In 2014, the company had a revenue of $66.001 billion with almost 60 thousand employees. The company has been such a success because of their expertise in management and the factors that lead their decision making processes.
One external factor that keeps Google ahead is globalization. Being a private......

...THE EFFECT OF AFFECT ON FOREIGN LANGUAGE LEARNING:
A REVIEW OF THE ANXIETY RESEARCH
Thomas Scovel
University of Pittsburgh
Although studies of the relationship between affective factors and language learning proficiency abound in the literature, the evidence to support such a relationship is difficult to interpret. Much of the problem resides in the fact that a wide range of variables are lumped together under the rubric “affect.” An attempt is made to ameliorate this situation by defining affective variables in terms of traditional psychological theory and classifying them as a subset of those variables intrinsic to the learner. The conflicting evidence dealing with one important affective variable, anxiety, is then examined, and it is shown that ambiguous experimental results can be resolved if the distinction between facilitating and debilitating anxiety is drawn. Further classificatory distinctions are discussed from the abundant experimentation undertaken by applied psychologists, and an attempt is made to consider the implications of some of this research for adult language learning-for some of the new methodologies in EFL as well as for future research opportunities.
Affective Variables
One does not have to delve deeply into the literature on the relationship between affective variables and second language learning to discover that “affect” is a cover term under which is swept a wide range of disparate constructs and behaviors. Included under......

Causal Factors

Emotional and Behavioral disorders can result from one or any number of combinations of causal factors from the students biological, familial, cultural, or educational background and/or environment. This essay will discuss causal factors, the implications, and possible mitigation regarding EBD students.
Biological factors are responsible for certain conditions that are the cause of certain emotional and behavioral disorders. Whether or not the parent was using recreational drugs while pregnant or if they have a history of mental illness can have an effect on the student with EBD. (Emotional and Behavioral Disorders: Causes and Prevention) Disorders such as Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), as well as mental conditions such as Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia are found to be caused by genes that are passed down from the parents to student (Causal Factors for Emotional Disorders).
Family relationships play a part in whether or not a student will have EBD. If there is physical abuse and constant turmoil in the home, the student is much more likely to have EBD. (Emotional and Behavioral Disorders: Causes and Prevention)
The school environment also plays a role in the behavior of the student. Undesired behavior can result from inappropriate corporal punishments, bullying by peers, and lack of proper attention from teachers (Causal Factors for Emotional......

...The four external environmental factors that help organizations achieve optimal function are economic factors, political/professional factors, technological factors, and sociological factors. Economic factors are basically funding, revenue, consumers, suppliers and competitors. If there aren’t suppliers, you won’t have anything to run your organization with. Competitors keep you in business by helping you strive to beat them. Obviously, if you didn’t have consumers, you wouldn’t have any money coming in to keep the company/organization running. Funding and revenue help build your business in the beginning, so without them, you wouldn’t even be able to start up. Political and professional factors are kind of like the laws and regulations that you have to follow to be running your organization, whether it be regulations from the state, or just a higher power of the company. Accreditation goes along with this as well, because there are standards that have to be met and there are people that will have to verify that that is being done. Technological factors are things like equipment and anything else that is used to run your organization. Sociological factors means that you have to understand the community’s needs. Using tools to figure out income, education, gender, race, and more will help this factor.
The six internal factors that help organizations achieve optimal function are beliefs, mission, vision, culture, goals, and products. These factors are a bit more simple to......

...Social Psychology?
In the case of social psychology providing a formal definition is very complex task because of two factors: the field’s broad scope and its rapid rate of change. Social psychologists have a very broad range of interests. Yet, most social psychologists focus mainly on the following task: understanding how and why individuals behave, think, and feel as they do in social situations in the actual or imagined presence of other persons. Reflecting this fact, we define social psychology as the scientific field that seeks to understand the nature and causes of individual behaviour and thought in social situations.
Social Psychology Focuses on the Behaviour of Individuals:
Societies differ greatly in terms of their views concerning courtship and marriage, yet, it is still individuals who fall in love. Similarly, societies vary greatly in terms of their overall levels of violence, yet, it is still individuals who perform aggressive actions or refrain from doing so. The same argument applies to virtually all other aspects of social behaviour, from prejudice to helping. Because of this basic fact, the focus in social psychology is squarely on individuals. Social psychologists realize, of course, that we do not exist in isolation form social and cultural influences – far from it. But the field’s major interest lies in understanding the factors that shape the actions and thoughts of individual human beings in social settings.
This contrasts sharply with the......

...However, when rupee depreciates it means our currency is getting weaker & its value is falling with respect to dollar. You can understand it with the following example:
Suppose, currently, the exchange rate is Rs. 45 = $1,
10 months later, either of the following two cases can happen
Case1: The exchange rate is say Rs. 40 = $1. This means rupee has appreciated or gotten stronger by approx 11% and you would be paying less to for a dollar
Case2: The exchange rate is at Rs. 50 = $1. This means rupee has depreciated or gotten weaker by approx 11% and you end up paying more for a dollar.
Factors Influencing rupee fluctuation
Rupee’s appreciation or depreciation against the dollar depends on the change in demand and supply for both the currencies. If the demand for rupee is comparatively high, rupee appreciates; if low, it depreciates. The important question here is ‘what factors drive the demand for a currency?’ They are:
* Interest Rate: A demand for a currency is hugely dependent on the interest rate differential between two countries. A country like India where int. rate is around 7-8% experiences greater capital inflow as investors get better return than what they might get in US. (with Interest rates of 2-3%). This results into rupee appreciation.
* Inflation Rate: The demand for a country’s goods & services by the foreign buyers would be more if the inflation rate is lower in that country compared to other countries. Higher demand for goods &......

INTRODUCTION
Political history is the description and analysis of significant political occasions, movements, thoughts, and leaders. Typically it is developed around the nation states. It is distinguished from but relevant to other areas of history such as economic history, social history, and military history.
Usually, political history discusses events pertaining to nation-states and the political process in particular. As per Hegelian doctrine, Political History ‘is a perception of the state with a guiding force beyond the material benefits of its subjects: it meant that the state was the root factor of historical change’. This differs with one, for example, social history, which predominantly discusses the events and lifestyles of common folks, or people’s history, that is historical account from the view point of a lay person.
A study of political history typically centers on a single nation and its political change and aggrandizement. A few historians highlight the ever increasing drift toward confined specialization in political history over the course of recent decades: ‘wherein a college professor in the 1940s resorted to identify himself as a “historian”, by the 1950s “American historian” was the designation.’
Political history is, therefore, sometimes considered as more ‘traditional’ type of history, contrasting with so......
